Stadium Merdeka - Malaya’s First Monument
Description
Stadium Merdeka opened its doors to the public again recently, marking the stadium’s next chapter in its life serving the nation. In conjunction with Malaysia’s National Day, I Love KL goes back to the beginning to chart the stadium’s explosive beginning as that iconic location where the country marked and celebrated its independence, as well as the journey it went through afterwards, including hosting a plethora of sporting events, concerts and even grassroots-level activities. Heritage conservation expert Elizabeth Cardosa walks us through these moments, and shares the story of her involvement in the restoration of Stadium Merdeka in the mid 2000s.
